I'd go silver to match the bumpers but get a bit of spare paint for touching in scrapes

The black roof bars/rack will match the hardtop

I think given the places we get to you'll be touching them up a lot, so go for black.

Hmmm, good point GareeeeE! Black would seem the sensible colour?

I'd go black, having been some of the places you guys go and my sliders have taken direct hits on rocks, slid along mud sections where they stick out wider too and have touched them up many a time. Don't bother with powder coating them either as it's harder to paint over - just Hammerite Satin black from a spray can and some in a tin for careful brushing on when touching up.

Good luck with the MOT! It should be fine as you know your onions! I doubt you'd put it in for an MOT if you knew something was iffy Dave.
